The year of 2014 has brought forth many exciting
movies to entertain the viewers with, and as expected, the month of
August does not disappoint! Although most of the movies set to hit the
big screen this month are not the grand high profile projects that one
would scramble to the theaters for, we can't deny that their storylines
are nothing short of having the ability to capture your attention!
The
first week of August saw the release of a very low profile,
typical Bollywood movie based on hooligans and their journey to
reformation. The film,
D Gangs of Mumbai released on the 1st of
August featuring the likes of
Mahima Chaudhry, Arya Babbar, and Sanjay
Kapoor. The story focuses on the characters Shiva and Avi, (played by
Arya and Sanjay respectively) who have chosen to tread the path of no
return i.e. committing illegal activities to gain power and status in
the bustling city of Mumbai. It is then up to a police officer with an
innovative visionary concept to reform the two criminals!
Now, the question is, does he succeed? Is it worth it? Hit the theaters on the 1st to find out!Following that, on the 8th of August releases
Entertainment, a
slapstick Bollywood rom-com featuring the Khiladi of Tinsel Town,
Akshay Kumar alongside the very beautiful Tammanah Bhatia. As expected
of a Sajid-Farhad film, it'll tickleyour ribs, no doubt! What
remains to be seen is, whether it'll do so in the positive way or the
negative! No Sajid film goes without a ridiculous plot, and this movie
doesn't fail to disappoint! The story revolves around the official heir
of a multi millionaire tycoon being a dog - in the
literal sense.
How
does Akshay fit into the equation and what could the dog possibly do
with the entire wealth of his master in his name, are all questions
that'll be answered on the 8th! Third on our list is possibly the only film that will be the most awaited for this month:
Singham Returns; starring
Ajay Devgn with
Kareena Kapoor Khan as the female lead. The movie is a sequel to the very popular
Singham, which was originally the remake of a Tamil movie,
Singam. Just
like any other
Rohit Shetty project, this action packed movie will,
without a doubt, set the screens on fire once again with the combination
of tremendous acting, gravity defying stunts, and a talented crew
behind the camera.
What criminal cleansing mission is Bajirao Singham
going to take on next, you wonder? Don't forget to show up at a theater
closest to you on the 15th!The last two Fridays of August
also feature the releases of another two movies, both low-profile, yet
starring two of Bollywood's most talented actors, Rani Mukherjee Chopra
and
Emraan Hashmi! The Rani Mukherjee starrer,
Mardaani, releases first, on the 22nd.
Mardaani is
a crime-drama film in which Mukherjee plays the role of a courageous
senior inspector who sets out to capture the mafia and the mafia's
kingpin in 30 days.
Does Inspector Shivani find the mafia and fulfill her duty? Grace your presence at the theater to find out!
The last but not the least is,
Raja Natwarlal, starring the one and only serial kisser,
Emraan Hashmi. Although
the movie itself is based off of a real life con-man, it also contains
many twists and turns to keep the audience on their toes. If nothing
else, the one thing Emraan
is popular for may be enough motivation for you to show up at the theater on the 29th.
While
there are films with stories that bring us nothing new, the stars and
the banner itself manage to excite us. There are also a few in the list
that just make us want to shrug our shoulders in disinterest. To us,
there's not much to choose from but beggars can't be choosers, eh? We
now want to you hear from you! What are you waiting for from this list?
